OSDev Series: Graphics 2

Post by Mike » Sun Mar 10, 2013 10:07 pm

Hello everyone,

This is the initial release for the OSDev Series Graphics 2 article which covers the interfaces between system software and video hardware. Topics include VGA firmware, introduction to VGA hardware programming, SuperVGA, VBE, and accessing display memory. This provides the basic framework for future graphics articles that will focus on graphics and rendering. The demos planned for release will be in C; multiple demos are planned that cover all major interfaces.
